Ch-ch-ch-changes

Last night a good friend of mine said I was very brave. She actually said that she wished that she was as brave as I am.


And up to that point I'd never in a million years considered myself brave. I'm not the type to scale mountains with just a piece of twine and a Swiss army knife. I've never attempted to sail a boat through a tempest storm where the vessel lilts at a 75 degree angle to the pounding waves. And I'm pretty sure if I ever saw a bear in the wild from less than a mile away I'd pee my pants.


See?


Decidedly NOT brave.




However, this morning I've been thinking a bit more about it. I did move out to Colorado without knowing a soul and made a home for myself. I swallowed my fears and committed my life, heart, and future to one man. I pushed myself to a career that is intellectually challenging. I drink milk passed the expiration date.


So maybe I am pretty brave after all. I mean, would a coward do this to herself:

Katharina said...

Yowza!
When you say "do this to herself", do you mean you cut those lovelies on your own? Because if so, you should maybe put away your protractor & calculator and hang out a shingle as a stylist!

CUTE CUTE CUTE!!!!

I've been admiring bangs lately but I'm not brave enough to have that sort of fringe -- I have to have 'whispy' bangs - mine are very non-committal.

Looks fantastic on you! Very beautiful, very hip, very flattering.

Nice work!
